Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation Approach for Functioning Muscle Transfer: A Case Report
Background: This case report of a patient with a an avulsion brachial plexus injury demonstrates the effectiveness of proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation (PNF) integrated into hand therapy following a pedicled latissimus dorsi (LD) musculocutaneous flap transfer for elbow and fingers extension. Methods: A 29-year-old right-hand dominant male suffered from high-energy crushing and avulsion...
متن کامل11 Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation
Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation (PNF) is a dynamic approach to the evaluation and treatment of neuromusculoskeletal dysfunction with particular emphasis on the trunk. Over the past couple of decades substantial progress has been made in the conservative care of spinal problems.1-5 The shift towards evaluating and treating them from a functional or neuromuscular perspective enhances an...
متن کاملOptimal Contraction Intensity during Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation
Sheard, PW and Paine, TJ. Optimal contraction intensity during proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation for maximal increase of range of motion. J Strength Cond Res 24(X): 000–000, 2009—An informal review of literature on the use of postisometric relaxation (PIR) type proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation (PNF) indicates that the force of contraction requested from the athlete ranges from ...
متن کاملHemodynamic and lactic Acid responses to proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation exercise.
The hemodynamic and metabolic responses to proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation (PNF) exercise were examined in 32 male university students (aged 19-28 years). Ten repetitions of PNF exercises were applied to the subjects' dominant upper extremities in the following order: as an agonist pattern flexion, adduction and external rotation; and as an antagonist pattern extension, abduction and ...
متن کاملProprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation training induced alterations in muscle fibre type and cross sectional area.
OBJECTIVES To compare the effects of proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation (PNF) and isokinetic training on fibre type distribution and cross sectional area of the vastus lateralis muscle. METHODS Twenty four male university students were divided into two equal groups: PNF training and isokinetic training (ISO). The training regimen for the PNF group consisted of three sets of 30 repetiti...
